A great little UPS to cover my homelab.
on December 23, 2025
Posted by: OmieOne
Overall this is the perfect UPS for my Proxmox/Router with my core network switches. With the ability to connect the server to the UPS for battery monitoring and automated shutdown. Also the mute button on the UPS is front and center which is great if you don't want to configure it via the application. For me the fact I got the linux working and detecting the UPS with limits on when to shutdown automatically is a huge bonus as it limits the chances I will have corruption, and with the ability to read the battery state it won't shutdown at the first blip but can power on during smaller outages, of with my hardward connected I got 42 minutes before it decided it was time to shutdown, which is great in keeping the internet alive, though honestly if it goes more then 30 minutes it will be a few hours, but the fact ti will survive slightly longer outages is great. Overall this is a great homelab/workstation level UPS to give you battery survival. This overall is a great UPS to cover spotty power during storms etc. This is a great choice.

Nice Ultrawide
on December 9, 2025
Posted by: OmieOne
Wide screens are definitely awesome, I do like the extended real-estate this offers, especially since I have this mounted an arm allowing me to use it in portrait mode for developing and then swinging it back to normal for watching movies or playing games. While this isn't a true HDR like most TV's now a days, it still does a great job as a monitor for watching media and games its great with the high refresh rate it allows for everything to just look smooth and again having it be slightly ultrawide allows for a large field of view when gaming on it making it feel a bit more immersive. Or since it is wider I can play a game 2K on most the screen and still have some space for discord/youtube/walkthrough open on the side giving me options that I enjoy. Also for productivity as I said, having it on a arm allowing me to change to portrait or having wider screen for having multiple applications open is great and a game changer, I also enjoy the fact since this is 4K, the pixels for my older eyes aren't tiny having to result in me losing the space by increasing the size of everything. This seems to be the perfect balance with an awesome picture and for me the perfect gaming/producitivity monitor with great color and refresh.

This is just what I was looking for music!
on December 9, 2025
Posted by: OmieOne
Great for Music Listening with the bluetooth I can easily connect my phone to the device and stream music while working in my office which is perfect since I have all my music on my phone. The sound is rich and clear for the size, fits easily on the desk, or if you are fancy the wall with an included template to make mounting easier. Once I complete my office remodel I'm definitely thinking of doing that to place the soundbar at ear level for the best Music experience I can get. But for now its great for music and on the few occasions I have connected it to my PC via optical to watch a movie and while not a full blown sound 5.1 the movie/tv shows/youtube were much better then my headphones, at least in getting that full room sound going. Overall this is a great little soundbard and I could see it replacing TV speakers for sure allowing for better sound, and is great for parties when you want some music and people what to use their playlist for variety, they can just connect via Bluethooth and stream. Overall I'm really happy with this and the use case I'm using for it.

Nice Headphones Corsair
on November 7, 2025
Posted by: OmieOne
Nice comfortable feeling headphones that don't sit to tightly on the ears. The USB donglle for wireless connection is the standard corsair USB, but nice and large, about the size of a typical USB flash drive, giving it decent range in my testing and not likely to be lost on the floor. It is USB A and I find front of the PC or an extension USB-A cable from the back to make sure its has an unobstracted view works awesomely in ensuring no drops, but that is mostly because I have a large steel oldschool case and it tends to block a lot. Laptops shouldn't be an issue, unless you don't have a USB-A port, in that case your need a USB-A to USB-c, so be aware. Same for the charing the cable.
I found the battery to be long lasting and able to handle going days at a time between chargings. Also the volume on the headset is a rock switch, something different but I found easy to find when headphones are on and control, just different from the whell.
Microphone worked well and is flip to mute. Its also flexible allowing for some different adjustments to get your voice just right. Only thing I worry about being flexible and not removal is damage to it over time, and not something I can measure, just something to consider.
Sound is great and just perfect I found for gaming. Didn't make me any better but at least when I lost in games I could hear why which is always a plus.
Overall I found these to be great headphones that work well and recommend them.

Nice Wired over the head microphones.
on October 31, 2025
Posted by: OmieOne
Comfortable and light-weight great sounding cans with a good mic for gaming. Being wired means you don't need to worry about batteries and just start gaming. Also being wired there is no chance for lag between the audio and video which can be very noticable if you are watching movies.
These are comfortable to wear even with glasses which is great, and they are breathable for the ears which is important to me for longer days gaming. I found the sound and microphone and both had great sound, or great enough for me for gaming and watching movies. The Microphone is the standard flip to mute which is handy as you can keep it out of your way when not using.
The controls are placed logically as well and very easy to use.
Overall these are light-weight with comfortable foam headphones, that fit great over glasses. The sound is very clear that fills the headphones allowing you to enjoy movies and gaming.
The only potential downside is the cord is 4 feet long which depending on where you are plugging in might not be long enough so keep that in mind, but for me that isn't a huge issue with my setup, but something to keep in mind, but they are comfortable and and sound great and I'm very happy with them.

A perfect streaming Mic
on October 31, 2025
Posted by: OmieOne
Nice compact USB-C Microphone with an in built stand making it compact and about an adult hand high. Makes it a great travel microphone and fits in easy to a bag. The Base also can fit on a Microphone arm no issues. Its also a simple plug and play, just plug into a USB port and your are on your way. I like the fact they kept the tap on top to mute, making it easy to mute and the red light on the front stands out which is bright enough to let you know when the Mic is on or not. I like the indicator myself and button on the top responds easily which is awesome.
They do have an application and driver if you want to improve performance and customize it. You will need to install the Beta application though for the SoloCast 2. It allows input Equalizer, compressor and limter and some other features to tune the audio of the microphone which is nice as well as the drivers to make sure you get the best performance from it.
The sound was clear from the microphone and everyone could understand me, and I really did enjoy the compact nature making it easy to move around with a good base in a compact form. If you need a microphone for gaming and don't want to use headphone mics this is a great option.

Nice Gaming Headphones
on October 19, 2025
Posted by: OmieOne
These are the most comfortable pair of headphones I have worn. They are beathable on the ears, light and sits on the head very comfortablly because of the adjustable inner headband. With the Microphone being removable is a huge plus because if it breaks or goes bad, replacing it is easy, the downside I found is I forget where I left it, but I prefer being able to fix/replace it myself easily. So its an overall win to me. Connecting and setup on Windows 11 wasn't an issue. Plug it in, either via the USB-C cable directly and charge at the same time, or use the small USB-C wireless dongle. Didn't have issues with either. Additionally you can connect via Bluetooth, but I prefer wired or the custom dongle. It is a small dongle, so on a laptop that is handy, but on full sized desktop definitely want to plug it in to the front then the back for the best connection as I found range while perfectly fine, its not as far as some other headphones I've used. But honestly for gaming its not an issue, only if you want to keep talking while walking across the house to make a snack, and even then you should be able to be understood and hear with just limited distortion.
Sounds is great though the large drivers had great sound and with a great battery life this is a fanstic pair of headphones and I am enjoyuing using them.

Great Gaming Mouse.
on September 20, 2025
Posted by: OmieOne
First thing I noticed about this mouse is how light it is. Not sure how they can fit all that in and have such a light mouse for gaming, I'll never know, but I don't have to I just have to enjoy it. I am definitely enjoying it, it has a tight sensor and feels very responsive on either wireless or wired.
Setup is fairly easy, plug in USB Cable to PC, and connect either to the mouse or to the wireless sensor and off you go. The best fieature is configuration of the mouse. While Sony does have their inzone application unlike other mice from other vendors you don't have to install the App to configure your mouse. Just need to the inZone website and you can configure the mouse with no issues, save the profiles. I love this as I don't need another application installed across the board, esp. if I just want to adjust dpi. This is the winning feature for me. Only thing the website can't do is install firmware, which is fair, and I can install the application if needed.
Otherwise this mouse is light, has some nice configurations and I really enjoy using it to play games. Will it make you better. No, but you will have great mouse to game with. Another win from Sony.

Pizza in a Jiff
on July 24, 2025
Posted by: OmieOne
Nice way to quickly make pizza, or if your into bread making have a place to proof and then bake it on a stone, so overall this is a huge win for me.
Setup is easy, though due to the amount of heat it is recommend you setup outside and outdoors, and if you do leave it there, while they say weather resistant and can be used in ithe Rain or snow, definitely want to keep it some place covered and covered itself. Or just lug it in when cool and done using it and it cools.
That said, I find the fact this is electric really handy as I don't have to take up grill space to cook a pizza, so when its BBQ time, the kids can make there pizza's with toppings while I can grill next it. Since it will cook a pizza decently in 3 minutes even the smallest one will be able to wait, and with the window they can watch. Highly recommend having a pizza peel though to get it out and I found adding some cornmeal to bottom of the dough was a bit better then flour to allow it slide in and out easily.
Additionally though it has a proofing function, which is awesome when you want to make and bake some rolls with dinner, you can set this up, proof your dough quickly and then use the baking fucntion to bake your rolls while you BBQ the mains next to it, or if you want to get really wild BBQ some chicken and then turn around and make BBQ chicken pizzas with this. Options are limitless and since its a seperate unit it makes entertaining in the summer so much easier. 10/10

Nice Robot, gets things clean
on July 24, 2025
Posted by: OmieOne
Great robot, they are getting better with the application setup via the phone. I didn't have any problems beyond trying to remember my password for the wireless network, so that is a plus nothing complicated and you can let it do its mapping. Cool little device maps using LiDar so it made quick work of the downstairs which was nice and then being able to use the app to direct it to certain rooms was win. The application makes it easy to pick the rooms and setup a schedule and if you want to vacuum, mop, combo. Setting a schedule is awesome since I have doggies I run this after they go up to bed to clean the area so it doesn't get barked at, and it does a great job. When mopping it knows to stay off carpets, and does a decent job at mopping with the cleaning solution. Vaccuuming it handles awesomely too, I have much less of a dog hair problem now in the house because of this little guy and overall having a daily a clean really helps, though I do have to remember to make sure the fluid in the mopping bin is topped up and ready to go, but I couldn't be happier with this little guy, it is saving me time and helping keep the house cleaner then I could with my busy schedule. Definitely very happy with it.

Does the OS come installed on the HDD? If so do we get a product key so that we can switch it to the SSD? And last, but not least, can I system reset the computer and reinstall the OS from scratch??? Thank you.

OS is installed on the SSD not the HDD. But you could change it I guess. However if you are planning on swapping the SSD to something larger, not this the SSD in this PC is M.2 SATA SSD and not the 2.5" Inch form factor.

As long you use the same Microsoft Account the OS Key will transfer based on the Microsoft account, no need to renter a key.

Jam to your favorite tunes in comfort with the foldable, around-the-neck design of these Sony wireless headphones.
 

It mentions 9hr of battery life. Ignorant about wireless...is there a required charger? Does it come with headphones?

It comes with an USB Micro Cable. This can be plugged into a computer to charge (about 2 1/2 hours for full charge from 0%) or if you have a spare AC to USB connector (Comes with a lot of last Generation Android/Windows Phones) you can connect to the wall to charge.

If I wake this device up and my wife happens to rattle off our bank name and account number, is that information sent to Google to help improve their device's voice recognition? I am major worried about things like this with these devices

Once you say Hey Google, it will record and it gets stored on the Google Account associated with the device. Google does allow you to not only see what it has but delete it. They also added a H/W mute to prevent the device from recording. But yes they do store this information and use it.

Do I have to have a tablet or smart phone to activate this? Or, can I activate this from a laptop?

You need an Android (Phone or Tablet) or Apple (iPad/iPhone) device. Google unfortunately doesn't provide for use by Computer at this time and playing with the Android App I'd say you'd be better off with an Android device to get the most out this thing.

Will it help to stop buffering?

This depends on why you are having buffering issues. If your buffering issues are because your internet is slow/ISP not able to deliver no. That is outside the house. However if you have a good ISP/bandwidth coming into the house then this can help, as it improves coverage and since MU-MIMO devices are better able to share wireless with multiple devices. You may still need/wish to upgrade the wireless cards to the newer AC ones that support MU-MIMO to get additional throughput but this may help.
